Optimization of Poly-Si/SiOx Passivated Contacts for Crystalline Silicon Bottom Cells Applications by Julci Ditsougou, Thibaut Desrues, Anne Kaminski, Sébastien Dubois

“…Moreover, these thicker poly-Si layers benefit more from hydrogenation steps, enabling i-Voc of around 720 mV and carrier lifetimes of up to 5 ms on cell precursors. Finally, while increasing the thickness leads to current limitation under AM1.5G (1 Sun) illumination, this limitation is less pronounced under IR illumination. …”

Carboxyl-containing quinazolines and related heterocycles as carriers of anti-inflammatory activity by N. I. Krasovska, V V. Stavytskyi, I. S. Nosulenko, O. Yu. Voskoboinik, S. I. Kovalenko

“…Thus, the search for the novel anti-inflammatory drugs using in silico methods and approaches including structural modification of known NSAIDs by “bioisosteric” replacements of aromatic and heterocyclic fragments with other structural elements with carboxylic group as the carrier of pharmacological effect, is a current trend of medicinal chemistry. The aim of present study is to purposefully search for anti-inflammatory agents among carboxyl-containing quinazolines and related heterocycles using in silico and in vivo methods, as well as to evaluate carboxylic group effect on the level of anti-inflammatory activity. …”
